This is a little overdue, especially for those who emailed and left comments asking for recommendations with purchasing a new laptop. But to those who are still in the look out, check out the sub-Php30k laptop round-up after the jump.
We have here 14 laptops under Php30,000. I’ve already trimmed them down from over 2 dozens in the initial list and most of the laptop manufacturers are represented — Acer/eMachines, Asus, Dell, Lenovo, HP/Compaq, MSI, Neo.
We even have a surprise entry from Across with its own Core i3 laptop.
Click on the image to view full specs line-up.
Note that there are 4 laptops in the list that sports a Core i3 330M CPU coming from eMachines, MSI, Across and Neo. Those 4 units should be on top of your list if you’re getting a new one with a tight budget. Also note the ones that have Windows pre-installed in the units as these will give you a better bargain.
I’ll update the list whenever I bump into new ones but for the meantime, I think the chart above should do. Besides, from all the emails I regularly get, Php30k seems to be the sweet spot on laptop prices.
Acer Aspire 4736Z features a floating type keyboard keys for the ease of typing. Convenient for everybody. It’s a must have.
Thanks yugatech! I’ll definitely go for the eMD730. P26K on PC Corner. Sweet!
PS: one thing, GUYS: not all girls or gays are fascinated with fancy colors or designs. Some are after the specs. Psh.
sino nakatry ng DELL iMini 1012 N450 ? maganda po ba to?
thanks yugatech. this list is great. !
Recently helped a friend of mine get an Acer Aspire 4741 (29.9k). Pretty sweet machine, another sub-30k i3 worth looking at.
Have a feeling it’s the same exact chassis as the eMachines d730, in a nicer package.
Hey DK,
I guess asusph answered your question na. As for me, It’s very useful for multitasking. I’ve got Chrome, WMP, Granado Espada, Adobe Reader and MS Word running – and I’ve never experienced major slowness. Except nalang when I was running Sims 3 :))
Hope that helps. It’s really a great buy. Plus it doesn’t break my shoulder when I bring it to school!
Yes the 1201N is used by many here in the office who actually have like 10 spreadsheets of excel files open at the same time. :) (sales related work kasi sila) and it handles them pretty well. :)
hi krysia
ask ko lang if kaya ng asus 1201n ang multi-taksing
at madaming open na excel files
my work kasi is heavy sa paggamit ng excel at powerpoint
and i find netbooks very slow
pero mukhang promising yung asus 1201n
well, I am using the latest one HP DM3 pavilion…price there i think is around 40k but here in UAE you can have this for 2199dhs which is around 27110k only…angas parang macbook nga ang design nya..
